Greetings From Oz?
Recently departed “back to Australia” George Murray sat on the Quarter Deck table with Jimmy Murphy, Freddy Orme, George and his mate Brian we think Powell. George is a long time ex Pat and has been sailing in Aussie coastal ships for yonks. He lives near Newcastle NSW and has been here on a long holiday to see the old place and shipmates. He can’t see much of the old place but he has done plenty of swinging the lamp with the Awl Scalies.
We are glad he got home O.K. even if, in return for all our hospitality, he sent us, a picture of a pile of camel dung, Ha!!
